Sask. applies zero tolerance policy to drug-impaired drivers
Ahead of the legalization of marijuana next summer, Saskatchewan’s government will apply a zero tolerance approach to drug-impaired driving.
The government is making that change because officers will soon have screening devices to better test whether a driver is drug-impaired or not.
The federally approved saliva test shows a positive or negative result for recent drug use at a specific level.
If deemed to be impaired, the driver will then face sanctions such immediate vehicle and license suspensions.
